I don't even know where to begin...I am absolutely livid. I love and respect Reagan so very much and have always looked up to his eleventh commandment. I, however, just finished watching the GOP debate in California at the Reagan Library and I can't hold back anymore.
I can't stand Romney....I can't...period. I cannot understand how anyone could respect this man. I had respect for him in the beginning. I have no doubt that he is a very bright man, who has worked very hard in his life. But I honestly cannot see where this man's heart is.
Tonight the four candidates on stage were asked if they thought Reagan (if alive) would endorse them today and why. Romney said "Absolutely he would..." and proceeded to give a LONG Romney answer as to why. How could you possible have the guts to say such a thing when you didn't even vote for Reagan when he was running for President? Look at the video:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=7pVqZzHm3Z4 I just wanted to see Nancy's face as she listened in the audience.
And yes, running a business is difficult and he made progress in many aspects of his life, no doubt. But he honestly believes it makes him more fit to be president than the 22 years of service given by McCain, or the 5 years he got the crap kicked out of him, or the courage he had to risk his career and reputation by supporting the surge? Because that's the vibe Romney puts off...he somehow believes it makes him better.
And the pro-life issue...give me a break. McCain is pro-life and has a strong and consistent conservative record on that issue. Romney just 'out of the blue' changed his mind? I'm not saying you can't change your mind...but that type of change happens when you get married, have children, have grandchildren. At the age of 55, Romney still stood as pro-choice. See for yourself:

It's not only his lack of character, his flip flop, or his ego...it's his genuine heart towards humanity. I've never seen it. Not once have I ever felt this man had a heart...a sense of sympathy for a sick person, a sense of pride for the beautiful country in which we live, or the duty to put others above himself or work towards the greater good. When I saw this link I wanted to cry (http://youtube.com/watch?v=NY6UTnS6Z-A).
Watching the debate, a sense of anger welled up inside of me that I could not even voice. There sat Romney with a smirk on his face while he thought "I'm better than you"...sitting next to a man who gave 22 years of his life to fighting for our freedom, almost died while living five years as a POW, has served many years on our nations Senate, and who almost looks as though he is overcome with emotion when he speaks of how proud he is of the brave men and women fighting for our wonderful country.
It is character, moral, leadership, strict judgment, and love of this fabulous country in which we live that is necessary to lead this nation. This past summer, John Sydney McCain was DOA, and now, he is my miracle. Presidency is his destiny.
We will never surrender...we will stand strong...and we will see victory.

Fox News Debate in The SC
Sen. Thompson had a very good showing this evening. The latest Fox News poll in South Carolina has Thompson very low at 9%. I don't know if he can come back from that, but this cycle has proven to not go by the conventional wisdom too much!
I thought more attacks against Sen. McCain would occur but I didn't see any that were very damaging. I would like to offer some very small advice....I think the Senator should put together a very brief 5 point plan on how he would deal with immigration. I know it is a difficult issue for him, but this may make criticism a bit more difficult for Gov. Romney. I would advice offering a olive branch to certain anti McCain segments around the conservative base. A Thompson endorsement would help. Sen. McCain needs to mention Jack Kemp, Super K, Richard V Allen, Tom Ridge, Frank Keating, James Woosley, etc. McCain has great endorsements...use them when the chance arises.
However, McCain leaves the debate in SC and has full day Friday of event in South Carolina with most of his momentum back. On NR's The Corner the writers were very happy for Thompson's debate so maybe we will see an uptick for him. The issue for Fred is that Gov. Hucabee is popular, and maybe he is a liberal on many polices, and a class warrior but it is hard to attack likability.
Gov. Romney offered a strong debate as well but the earth did not shift for him tonight. Ron Paul was as outspoken and unpopular as ever, and Rudy had a look of panic in his eye. I would not yet write him off yet.
Simply put, McCain is running a strong number one or two in the next two primary states, and nothing changed tonight.
